Learn more about Detroit Mercy’s Bachelor of Social Work program and the FAST option by attending a virtual information session.
Community college transfer students can be part of a Full-time Accelerated Social Work Transfer (FAST) option within Detroit Mercy’s Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) program. In approximately three consecutive semesters (one year), qualifying transfer students take seven-week course modules that are scheduled conveniently on-campus with hybrid and asynchronous and synchronous online class sessions.
This module format makes it possible to complete the BSW program much faster than traditional BSW programs. Based on agency availability, students also have the option to explore work-site field placements and explore limited virtual (online) field education experiences. Students who do not meet the FAST eligibility requirements or who wish a traditional academic experience are invited to apply to Detroit Mercy’s BSW program and take the scheduling option at the standard semester pace.
